Add O365 Group Owner to Site Collection Administration List
I am struggling a little to find an answer for re-adding O365 group owner to site collection administration list. Typically, when a new team site is created, O365 group owner is automatically added to the list of site collection administrator but when it is not listed, how can this be added back in? If manually searching and adding [O365 group name] Owner, it is not listed but [O365 group name] Member is. If [O365 group name] Member is added, everyone, including member/non-owners has site collection administration access. So, any guidance in re-adding [O365 group name] owner back in would greatly be appreciated.
ChrisFicekin the new SPO admin center, select the site, then look at the info panel, if the group is disconnected from the owner role, a message box will show up with a link to reconnect it.

- Easier! Should have look at admin centers first. New features are coming every hour :)
Martin-Coupalvery true, and many are unannounced. I noticed that a while ago when I was trying to fix a problem caused by someone on my customers team that did not understand what they were doing with a script (:
Find the GUID of the members Azure AD Group. Go into this location of your site and change the view to add the account info and also you can remove the filter to display hidden account.
/_layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=0
Then take the GUID that end with the _o (This is the owner GUID of the group)
Something like c:0o.c|federateddirectoryclaimprovider|999999-9999-9999-aaaa-12212122_o
Take only this portion: 999999-9999-9999-aaaa-12212122_o
Go into the site collection admins and paste the GUID.
- Please check the admin panel settings.
